still sharing . . .

Cleaned out the artpit, and it's been great,because it's inspired a flurry of scrapbooking.This wave won't last long, so I'm riding it forall it's worth. So anyway, here are some of thelovely things I've acquired lately, none of my own making:

This book is from the Collage Contessa. I love it. She had six of these cuties posted on her blog, and I made some comment like, "Oh, how pretty," but what I was thinking was, "OH MY GOSH, I REALLY HOPE ONE OF THESE IS FOR ME!" And it was.Thank you!!

This atc was from a Vintage Valentine swap, and I think it's wonderful. Michelle said it was actually one of her first atcs--isn't it great?The couple are her aunt and uncle, which makes it more special. As if this wasn't good enough,she sent the amazing packet of Valentine goodiesbelow-- these are so much fun! Michelle, you made my day with this swap, thank you!

This we found at an antique mall. I collect Nemadji pottery here and there, and the daughterfound this one for three dollars! Well, yes, thank you, I think I will . . .

Thanks for the kind comments!! I am so glad you liked the atc, it was a fun little project! I'd like to think my great Aunt Ethel would be so amused to know I am sending her sweet little face to a perfect stranger, she was such a little fiesty thing! XO

Goodmorning,Love your blog, Have enjoyed spending time here and seeing all your wonderful creations.Blogger has really outdone itself with the new look it gave to "followers" Just so you know, I clicked on "Be my Friend" to you.... Don't know where this goes but if you see me there that is why.... I must find out more!!Have a great dayxoxo((((hugs)))))Maggie

What a pretty atc! Wish my first one looked as pretty (that is why it was my only one). Love the pottery-great deal also! Never heard of it either but it is pretty. Yep! I was thinking the same thing about those lovely books by collage contessa and low & behold I rec'd one also!
